Have you ever wanted something so ①badly that you wanted to do anything to get it? Well, that used to be me. Three years was quite a long time and hard time, but I got what I wanted: a lovely dog named Dion.

My family and I met it at a dog show. We drove for four hours to its owner’s house where she showed us three little dogs. They were all so lovely with their little legs, long bodies and heads that looked too big for their bodies, I couldn’t decide which to choose until ②the smallest dog came up to me and licked my face.

Dion felt quite strange to our home at first. Every night, she cried in a way that sometimes made me cry. She cried almost every second of the day. But after a few weeks, she got used to us.

My mother and I took Dion to a kindergarten for little dogs. It was funny to see all the dogs barking very loudly. She was very shy. But she was very friendly with the other dogs. The trainer says that she is doing very well for a four-month-old dog.

If you want to get a dog, think about your time and the work you must do. I walk Dion four to six times a day. I feed her, spend time with her and watch her when she is out of her doghouse. Even if my favorite TV program is on, or a good part in a movie is coming up, __③__. It is a lot of work to keep her clean. Sometimes when I brush her, ④I end up with hair all over me.

But Dion also gives her love to me in return. She is always there to lick me and lie on me. I enjoy playing with her, I think she can __⑤__ when I am happy, sad, angry or troubled. Dion is my dog, and she is my friend as well.

My friend Peter was kind and lovely. But as a student, he was bad at math, English and science because he didn't have an aptitude(资质)for that kind of study.

One day we were playing football and the ball got stuck in a tree. Peter climbed the tree to get it, and one of the teachers, John Marston was looking out of the window, noticed that he was a talented climber. Mr Marston was an expert (专家)in climbing. He had climbed many mountains.

One weekend Mr Marston invited Peter to climb Mount Kilimanjaro. Peter really enjoyed the climbing. Mr Marston told Peter he was a very talented climber for his age.
